I Liked Him So YOU Can’t Have Him!!

 

dating ex

That sounds stupid but…it’s real life. Why you say? I have no ufckin clue. Even if you actually dated said guy or girl [Sidebar: Do men have this rule?] why does your friend have to be off limits? There was obviously something that made you two break up so why can’t she give it a try if they’re attracted to each other? I’ve thought of a few reasons why this rule exists:

1. You’re not over the relationship.

I’ve always said that I don’t care if any of my friends date or sleep with anyone I’ve ever dated or slept with as long as it wasn’t my first boyfriend. The reason I had that stance, till about 2006, was because I wasn’t over the situation. Today, I could care less.

2. You don’t want them to get to talking.

You know what you’ve said to him about her…you know what you’ve said to her about him. You’ll end up without a man and a friend. Damn.

3. Sex is an issue.

I’m actually not sure about this one because I cannot think of a reason why this would complicate things unless you apply it to #2…

4. People are idiots.

True story: There’s a girl that I went to college with that I wasn’t friends with. I didn’t know her from a can of paint. She broke up with her boyfriend in 2006 or 2007. About 2 months later, I saw him in the Union and I thought, despite the fact that he was rocking Fila’s, that he was cute. We talked on the phone like twice and that’s about it. She hates my guts and it’s 2011. Case and point.

Like I said, I don’t see the big deal but that’s just me. What are other reasons that you guys can think of that would make a person not want you to date their ex?

Thick Ain’t It

I understand that I’m the last person that should knock a woman’s quest for thickness and curves but I’m going to do it ANYWAY. I’m not here to preach the common '”love yourself” and “black beauty” and all that good stuff. Who needs to say what has been said, I’m just here to say that you cannot have it all. Period.
We all know that as black women, the media (movies, rap music, magazines, etc.) teaches us that black men want women who look like
Ideal Woman
And if you’re dark skinned well damn you better look like
Dark Skinned
Now that we’ve stated the obvious, lets get down to what’s real; women come in a variety of shapes and sizes, hair textures, eye colors, and whatever it is that you don’t like about yourselves. Because body types was the easiest thing to search for, that’s what I’ll focus on.

Oooo You Can Get It!

 

Have you ever wonder what that really means? Ok…let’s state the OBVIOUSYou Can Get It

Lately I’ve been noticing how many rappers always talk about their stroke like it can cure cancer like in EVERY SONG!! I mean they aren’t the most attractive, facially or physically, so naturally I wouldn’t really see them in that light. You never know but you can guess…anyways…I got to thinking; how many times have I heard my guy friends AND girlfriends talk about their sex like its what the game is missing especially when the see someone the want to potentially want to give it to? Next thing you know, they’re flirting trying to give it away (men and women) or make it seem like it’s available (women). This is all well and good but I think there are some questions that need to be addressed before that statement can be made.

Anyone Seen My Kangaroo??

 

Sometimes curvy isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.  Sometimes I just want to trade in a little booty and/or boobage to get rid of what I call the kangaroo pouch.

lower stomach

It will always be a trouble spot of mine. I had gotten it together with diet and exercise but every since I’ve moved I haven’t been working out regularly and my diet is terrible. I literally have to start over from SCRATCH! I’ve joined a gym but I’ve done a little research on some lower stomach exercises.

Man of My Dreams, I Don't Sleep So I Can't Find Him....

 

 

(I pretty sure he’s the man in my dreams. Green Eyes)

black women white man

As much as I love being a female, I believe that we can create an alternate reality in our minds when it comes to men. There are no perfect men on this planet our view of our relationships will be ten times better. Now some relationships are not with the time and I do not believe in wasting time BUT in the same breath we need a little more patience because…

They’re idiots.We give them way too much credit as we assume that they will be as thoughtful and caring as we are. Its not a bad thing; that’s just how it is. They’re boys.

  • As much as women are into macho jocks and manly men, we’ll still want him to send us flowers and be understanding when we’re bloated and cramping. Shit just doesn’t make sense. Jocks are asses.
  • They’re simple. They can’t really take in a lot of information. You can’t ask them to do multiple tasks because they won’t get done. You can’t tell them stories like you would tell your girlfriends because they won’t hear 87% of it.
  • They give you stupid explanations when they screw up and and expect you hear what they’ve said and accept it as the truth. When you colorfully explain to them the words that came out of their mouths was the dumbest shit you’ve ever heard, they’re flabbergasted.
  • They’re selfish.

No matter how many movies we watch where successful white  people meet each other and fall in love in the most romantically comical way, that does not happen in real life and we should not expect it to. It’s a far cry from reality. They’re just the relationships of our dreams…

Oh and yes; I am speaking from personal experience.

You Want Me To Do This For 9 Months?

 

I remember when I was in high school, all of my friends and I had our lives planned out. Married by 26 and babies by 28. Well I’m 26 and no where near marriage and even further from children. I’m all for marriage but babies…I’m starting to look at it a bit differently.

1. I have no desire to mutilate my body and I don’t know if I ever will.

2. This looks painful. Like FORREAL. That baby is probably trying to turn her ribs into monkey bars.

Found these on the web…

Amber Alert!!

 

Why does everyone and their Mama consider Amber Rose to be a ho? Serious question. Here’s what we know about her based upon what’s been put on the internet:

amber-rose1

  • She used to be a stripper in Philadelphia.
  • She dated/experimented with women.
  • She is an ass model.
  • She dated Kanye West.
  • She has capitalized on her assets.

How does any of this make her a ho?

Is It Just Me…

 

Am I really the only black female that cannot flat twist or cornrow her hair? I mean I haven’t actually tried in years but right about now I NEED to learn how.

*Lets take a moment to thank God for YouTube*

I found to really good videos with close ups. I’m going to try this on my next hair wash day (probably Friday). Wish me Luck!

Phuck What You’ve Heard

 

What’s your hair type? For a while now I’ve been trying to figure out how I could possibly be classified as a type 4 hair. I’ve seen SO many different typed of Black hair around and I don’t think that all of us can be thrown into this type 4 box.

I found a NEW hair type listing on MIzani and I think it’s a little more accurate when I comes to classifying Black hair.

image

I am type 6:

 

TEXTURE: Thin to thick or combination

GROWTH PATTERN: Grows up and away from the scalp, then curls

BODY / VOLUME: Some volume. Likely to be compact, less movement.

ELASTICITY: Stretching with minimal return

POROSITY: Raised cuticle. Some frizz, tangled.

 

When my hair is wet the description sounds like type five but when it’s dry it sounds like type six. I may be somewhere in-between but this is a MUCH better description that the type four.

One Year Natural (LOTS OF PICS)

 

I waited until January to post this because I cannot remember when I actually did my big chop. I know it was in December but I don’t remember the actual date. With that being said:

I loved my perm. I really did. I got a really bad perm one day, got chemical burns, some hair fell out and the rest was history.

SANY1908SANY3340

I transitioned with braids and a sew in for 12 months. I remember trying to play with the natural hair that would slip out of the braids just to see how it was LOL!!

SANY5574SANY5575

I remember taking out my last set of braids before my big chop and I was looking in the mirror like what am I supposed to do with this?? The perm was literally dead hair and it looked STOOPID!! Sooooo…

“I KNOW You Didn’t Call Me a HOE!!”

 

Kat-Stacks-e1288296421232rosa-acosta-terry-richardson-supreme-8

Hoes. Yes HOES. The word that won’t die even if you poisoned it and shot it repeatedly in the face. Lets look at the word hoe/whore:

A whore/hoe is a word that is specifically meant for a prostitute where prostitution is the act or practice of providing sexual services to another person in return for payment.  What they MEAN to call women are SLUTS where a “Slut is a term meaning an individual who is sexually promiscuous. The term is generally applied to women and used as an insult or offensive term of disparagement, meaning "dirty”.

The term SLUT, in the sense of a sexually promiscuous woman, dates to at least 1450. Since 1450, the New World was discovered, Africans were enslaved, a couple wars, a lot of people died, black people got free…kinda, the Great Depression,  Jim Crow enslaved blacks again, a lot of people died, black got free…kinda, women burned bras,…I was going to keep going but there’s a lot of important shit between the birth of slut and today. So why are sluts still hanging around like roaches?
